I have no idea what that means. The states began to erode away the rights of the innocent unborn, and instead of upholding the Constitution as their oath obligated them to do, the SCOTUS swept away thousands of years of civilization’s morays against killing children.

And now you want a situation in which the equal protection of the laws no longer applies in this country. You want a situation in which Utah babies have a right to live, but California babies do not.

This is the destruction of our Union.

If the United States is not united around the principle that our rights to life and liberty come from the One Who created us, and are therefore unalienable, this formerly free republic is dead. All we’re waiting for is the funeral.

You are delusional. “Thousands of years of morays(It’s mores.) against killing children” was for the BORN.

You lie about what historical views on abortion actually were, and what the actual timeline of abortion laws was, and expect us to listen to you.

Then you may as well prepare for the funeral, because there are at least 13 states which will NOT ratify a HLA anytime soon, if ever, even if it managed to get through 2/3 of Congress. That's reality, something you appear unwilling to acknowledge. While you're waiting for a perfect solution to materialize millions more babies will be murdered in their mother's womb, and that doesn't have to be.

You could not be any more opposed to the legalized murder of the unborn than I am. But I am willing to accept an achievable but imperfect partial remedy for the obscene situation that now exists while I pray, wait, and hope for the perfect remedy that is not achievable at this point in time unless God performs a miracle. How many millions of unborn lives will be snuffed out while we wait for a supermajority of the American people and their representatives in government to come around to our POV? Given the sad state of morals and personal integrity of the American people today I don't expect that supermajority to materialize within my lifetime. But I do believe it is possible to dramatically reduce the number of abortions by electing people who will work toward achieving that end instead of people who talk great on the issue but would be politically unable to implement their proposed remedies if elected.
